The KAT's Meow

Daddy: Jr., are you going to be a daddy someday?
Jr.: Uh huh.
Daddy: Are you going to be the best daddy ever?
Nichole (pipes up from other room): I’m going to be a walrus.
(laughter from Mommy and Daddy)
Nichole: Oops, I mean mom.

Spring Break

Hey, kids. Do you want to visit your friend, Anna, during Spring Break?

YAY!

A Father and His Baby

Jeremy: Can I tell you? Sometimes it's nice just to have a sleeping baby in your arms.

Catch of the Day- Walkie Talkie

Reverence Tent, Day 2

The kids got to use the reverence tent again for the Sunday sessions of General Conference. I found them in there before the first session, reading books.

Then Daddy made breakfast for us to enjoy during the first session. Omelets, toast (with homemade wheat bread), and hot chocolate. Yumm. The kids got to eat in the reverence tent because they promised to be really careful and not spill... and because we put our big beach towel on the bottom to catch any spills that might happen (they didn't spill by the way).

And like the day before, they migrated out of the tent. This time it was to play with their Sacrament Meeting Quiet books I'd been working on. The books worked pretty well. It kept the kids busy and I could enjoy Conference while crafting (while the baby was asleep).

Reverence Tent

As we were preparing for General Conference, the kids and I found this story from the October 2008 Friend. We decided to use Jr.'s play tent from Grandma and Grandpa as a reverence tent for Nichole and Jr. to use during Conference.

They were so excited about it. I let them put snacks in there and coloring pages and notebooks to "take notes." They started out the first session in there and gradually migrated to other areas of the room.

Jr. has been practicing recognizing the 1st Presidency and Quorum of the 12 Apostles, so he loved seeing the men he knew giving talks.

April Fool's

I have nothing to say today.
